Eyes - upward to the right (their left).

Trying to recall memories. Eyes -


upwards to the left (their right).

A hand over the mouth whilst talking indicates deceit. A
desire to try and stop the words coming out of the mouth.
It can be a quick touch to the mouth, or a sustained
rubbing across the mouth.

Move the hand away from the mouth, lower down the
face, under the chin, and this would be positive evaluation.
Dr.AT BL1(t_allan@rediffmail.com)
The finger across the top of the
lip can be seen with the hand in
many positions around the face.

They all indicate critical analysis.


Shall I? Shalln't I? Will he? Won't
he?

Stroking of the beard.
Normally seen on men!
Seriously, irrespective of the
beard, the gesture is an
evaluation signal. Generally a
positive evaluation. It's a time
for thought process.

Women generally stoke the


bottom of the chin with a
thumb and forefinger.

Dr.AT BL1(t_allan@rediffmail.com)
People, who are long sighted and need
their glasses for reading, will hold their
glasses like a baton if they are in the habit
of putting them on to read, and taking
them off to look at you.

Sucking the stem of the glasses is an


evaluation gesture, rather than ‘stroking
the beard.’ It is generally a positive
evaluation of your ideas, suggestions,
information or requests.

Dr.AT BL1(t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Many people misunderstand folded arms. She may feel
comfortable with her arms folded. She may be cold.

Considering the rules, if you've just said something she dislikes, or


disagrees with, and she sits back, folds her arms and puts her chin
down, you have a very negative signal, even if she is smiling.
Dr.AT BL1(t_allan@rediffmail.com)
WET FISH from a man this normally means an introvert, or a weak
character, someone who is easily persuaded and likes to fit in.

Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
THE BONE CRUSHER handshake is used by macho
dominant men. It's a show of strength and dominant
character to the extreme.

Often a case of, "Don't mess with me, I'm a hard man."

Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
A NEUTRAL handshake should use the same pressure to hold
say a hammer, a bat or a racquet. The hand should be 'neutral'
neither palm up nor palm down.

A palm up handshake indicates subservience.

A palm down handshake indicates control.

Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
A sequence of handshakes indicating degrees of warmth and passion.
Please be aware that the hand is the third least erogenous zone to be
able to touch.
The least erogenous zone on a man is the lower arm, and the upper arm
on a woman.
The double handshake shows great warmth and passion. You would
only do this with close friends, and people with whom you have deep
sincere gratitude. The last picture with the hand on the shoulder, could
also end with the arm over the shoulder-it indicates further warmth and
feeling.
Anyone who gives you a handshake with two hands, when first meeting
Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
you, is likely to be insincere and overwhelming, or even deceitful.
The lowered steep-ling of the hands indicates listening, and
can also be a negative confidence gesture.

Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
The scratch to the back of the neck indicates either
the neck itches or uncertainty or even lying.

Dr.AT/BL( t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Pulling the ear can be an ear itch. It can mean
nervousness or deceit.

It can mean a desire to shut out the words they are


hearing, or the words aren't 'going in'.

It may also indicate they've heard enough.


Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Hot under the collar!

People touch their face 10 times more than normal when they feel
uncomfortable.

When you lie, you feel a tingling sensation around your face and neck,
and feel you need to touch or relieve the area.
Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Hand clasping at a desk or in a chair on its
own may indicate nervousness, insecurity
or anxiety.

Loosely clasped would be more like anticipation and the more


tightly clasped they are, the more the anxiety.

Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Clasped hands in front of the body are a
barrier signal, seeking reassurance.

If the thumbs were steeple’d it would be


a confidence gesture.

Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Here's the mother of all confidence gestures,
even arrogance.

Men, when evaluating and responding to women's


ideas will often go into this position. The reply
may even start with the arrogant little cough.

The Dr.AT/BL
most (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
supreme will be when the chair is tilted
back onto two legs.
When sat back, arms folded and the legs are crossed
tightly, this is extremely negative. You may walk in and
see this negativity, indicating prior feelings to you
arriving, or you may say something, which affects this
negativity.

Crossed legs can be comfort, but often indicate


negativity. Holding a clipboard in front of the
chest at the same time will indicate negativity, a
barrier signal, seeking reassurance, pushing you
away. Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Sat back with an arm over the chair will indicate
lethargy. They maybe don't want to be there, and aren't
giving you much attention.

Leg cocked over the chair will indicate indifference.

The attention they are giving you is minimal.


Dr.AT/BL (t_allan@rediffmail.com)
Four seating position.
It can be on the positive route.
It normally indicates mild confrontation and
stubbornness at that point.

This is blatant territorial ownership. Claiming


territory. It could easily be disregard of other
people's territory if it were say your feet on
someone else's desk.
